Hi, Sorry for the long delay... we tested with 4.5-rc2 after you sent this email, and the error message did not appear, but the driver/hardware didn't appear to function; after loading the module we got this: --snip-- Mar 3 15:05:43 localhost kernel: [ 294.632663] mlx5_core 0000:41:00.0: firmware version: 12.12.1100 Mar 3 15:05:43 localhost kernel: [ 295.229653] mlx5_core 0000:41:00.1: firmware version: 12.12.1100 Mar 3 15:05:44 localhost kernel: [ 295.805140] mlx5_ib: Mellanox Connect-IB Infiniband driver v2.2-1 (Feb 2014) --snip-- No Ethernet/IB interfaces are visible, and no additional output in kernel messages. I looked at trying to apply the said patch to 4.1.11, but it appears the driver has changed too much between the 4.1 and 4.5 branches, at least in drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c (different function names, parameters changed, etc.). Should I focus on trying to use a newer kernel, or is it possible to get the patch re-worked for 4.1.x? Or any other solutions so we can stick to the upstream Mellanox kernel drivers for these 100 Gb/s VPI adapters? Thanks for your time. --Marc On Sun, Feb 7, 2016 at 3:52 AM, Leon Romanovsky <leon@xxxxxxx> wrote: > On Sat, Feb 06, 2016 at 05:36:13PM +0200, Leon Romanovsky wrote: >> > I'm using Linux 4.1.11 and trying to get Mellanox 100 Gb adapters >> > working.
